My friends, I did make it through this day without smoking. I need to say this and I want you to know this is from the heart, I got through because of you. I do know that if I didn't have the support of the SCC this quit would have been like all my other quits where when it gets tough I get a pack. This is the first time I had a support group to come to, and ask for help, and it came and you were there for me. Funny but I wanted to stay strong for each of you. Each of you that reached out, and even the ones who read my post and yet didn't respond I still could feel the strength of prayers that went forth for me.
My brother was very concerned and supportive of me and supportive of my quit during our time today with what we went through and had to do. As I said he is a chain smoker and as he did smoke he would try to stay away from me. I realized then that I had to take and live life on lives terms and that N.O.P.E. had to be my strength. Nicodemon just kept saying one drag, just one drag and you won't go back to full time smoking but you will feel better and get through.
You can't have a better excuse then this and the hardship you feel and are going through that everyone will understand and be supportive of your smoking again.
As we were in the boat going out to sea I took out and just kept going over your words.

You have strength, you have all of the courage and resolve and fortitude that got you to 114 days. You have been doing and are in the middle of creating a loving new life for yourself. Spread you wings and fly!
Freedom!
Butterfly Swimmer, your words
It's obvious that you really want this quit and I'm sure that you will get through this smoke free. Just think of how proud you will be of yourself if you can do this and not smoke!

Nicodemon is quite clever and seems to lay in wait for just the right opportunity to pounce and try to entice u
